  1. Re:WTF? +3, Informative? on A Brief History of the Space Station · · Score: 2, Funny

    Dude, chill. I took so long finding out how to get the google referrer that all the other stories were posted; when I started looking the article was 0/4. I suppose that makes me a karma whore, but if you check my history you'll see i'm recovering from a time when I forgot to post anon on a big bunch of crap penis jokes.

    Sucking isn't necesarily a bad thing; ever had a GF?

  5. Just out of interest on Spammer Profile: Scott Richter · · Score: 2, Informative

    I have the international phone number for them right here, I'm in the UK and I just wasted 5 seconds of thier time going "um" and apologising. Perhaps someone with a stronger constitution can take out +1 303 464 8164

    Official source for this number, from the optinbig website.

  6. Re:This game is going to suck. on Half-Life 2 Targeted for Summer Release · · Score: 2, Informative

    The whole reason it's been delayed from Christmas was to change the game enough that compatible cheats couldn't be written with the leaked source code.

  7. Re:Very good news on Spirit and Opportunity Now Operational · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Dude. That is fucking hilarious. Best monty python ref. I've ever seen, including the NGE black night reference.

  8. Re:Major release on KDE 3.2.0 Released · · Score: 3, Funny

    Now since I had been using it on a teste machine

    shouldn't there be two of them?

  9. Re:Don't Mend It, End It on Columbia Disaster Anniversary · · Score: 1

    I'm from the UK. Railways were privatised. Then people started dying due to poor maintainance and other cost-cutting measures. The goverment isn't that good, but it's better than the alternatives.

  10. Re:Don't Mend It, End It on Columbia Disaster Anniversary · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Sooo... Privatising space travel will get rid of lives being lost due to cost-cutting measures? Are you insane??

  11. Re:The Netherlands??? on Lindows Takes a Hit in the Netherlands · · Score: 1

    Nah, Austin powers. As far as I can remember, there's an evil henchman who throws shoes. "Ow! That really hurt! Who throws a shoe? I mean, come on! A shoe?"

  12. Easter egg on Creator Of Solitaire For Windows Interviewed · · Score: 2, Funny

    The article has the question "Is it true that there is an 'Easter egg' embedded in Solitaire that pops up a picture of Bill Gates caught in flagrante delicto with a marine mammal?" answered yes.
    What I want to know is, what is this easter egg? It's for... uuh... personal reasons.

  13. Question is... on A Linux Machine For Your Collar · · Score: 0, Troll

    Does it run Windows?

  14. Microsoft PR war? on Microsoft-Funded Linux Studies Benefit ... Microsoft · · Score: 1, Funny

    Everyone in my family is an average consumer, which means they equate Microsoft with computers, and that Windows is the only OS out there. The microsoft PR war, if it happens, will cause the following effect.

    "Hrrm... according ot this article, linux is bad"
    "What's linux?"
    "let's MSN Patrick, he'll know"

    See where this is going? Nerds, adopt as many newbs/idiots as you can, and educate!

    It is DoS'ing SCO - a million slashdotters descend upon the SCO webpage to see if it still stands.

  24. I never really got into the game on America's Army - Development, Impact Analyzed · · Score: 1

    Having to remember tank designs in order to run covert ops training really got me thinking. I'd say this game oversteps the mark. Ok, the first aid training actually turned out to be handy (long story, involving blood) but identifying millitary vehicles?

  25. Re:Overcoming obstacles on A Modest Model Railroad · · Score: 1

    I'm a guy who's had Aspergers for a while, and I had a lego railway when I was smaller, ok maybe about the age of 10 or so but it's a great toy nonetheless. Interoperable with all those old lego sets, who wants to drive a train through Bob's house?
